Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Zenkitty - I really haven't decided yet. I might pass it on to Kelly if she wants it. If not, I'll let you know. It does have lifetime programming - is that transferable? I need to look into that.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Jessica, we've had good results both with Magellan Roadmates and TomToms. The only thing I'd recommend is spending a little more and getting one with lifetime map updates.

The C3P0 voice will probably be pretty entertaining.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Anyone else have a Tivo Premier? Any opinions?

The new OS feels like a work in progress to me. Sometimes I get the old screens and sometimes I get the new ones, with little rhyme or reason to it. But if you didn't previously have an HD Tivo, then you'll love it regardless.

Thanks Jon. My current machine is a Series 2. I'm also looking forward to being able to get Netflix streaming through my Tivo.

Yeah, it's a big step up from a S2. If you already have a S3, I wouldn't bother upgrading. I did, and partly regret it.

Suzi, yes, the lifetime Tivo is transferable.

It might be transferrable now, but there was definitely a time when the subscription went with the box. If you bought it then, they may be difficult.

Vortex, that was what I meant, the subscription with the box to a new person. I don't think you can shift a subscription from one box to another.

Yeah, I meant that it can be transferee to the new person. I know this because my friend gave me my Tivo and it was a cinch to put it in my name with the lifetime service.
